The thrombin time assay is a versatile clinical assay used for screening fibrinogen related disorders and quantification of fibrin degradation products, as well as for detecting the presence of ...

Aim: This study aims to investigate the role of activated partial thrombin time (APTT) as a potential mediator in the relationship between suboptimal glycemic control and diabetic peripheral ...

Objective: To investigate the value of admission blood routine and coagulation function parameters in predicting acute symptomatic hydrocephalus in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage ...

Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) monitoring of direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) is vulnerable to interference from many sources. If the baseline aPTT is prolonged, as occurs with lupus ...

Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is the primary test used to monitor intravenous (IV) direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) but has many limitations. The plasma diluted thrombin time (dTT) has ...

Rationale: Smooth muscle precursor cells have previously been reported to reside in bone marrow and in the circulation, but little is currently known regarding the proximate stimuli for smooth muscle ...

Activation of neutrophils by microbial or inflammatory stimuli results in the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) that are composed of DNA, histones, and antimicrobial proteins. In ...

A pseudoaneurysm (also called a false aneurysm) is a collection of blood and blood clot that has formed outside a blood vessel, usually after an injury. The collection is connected by a channel to the ...
